A tender, warmly moving story of grief and self-discovery by the celebrated author of When Life Gives You Mangoes
When Brie was younger, her mama used to surprise her with treasure hunts around their island town. After she died three years ago, these became Brie's most cherished memories.

The first letter guides Brie to a special place.
The next urges her to unlock a secret.
And the last letter will change her life forever.
